[Asterisk-Users] kiax - iax2 softphone

[undrhil.1528785 at bloglines.com]

That was the first thing I checked for.  I have since discovered that by checking
off the comfort noise selection in the options for the SIP account and then
restarted kiax, I don't get the noise anymore.  I guess it's something that
kiax uses as a way to make sure the caller knows I'm still on the line with
them.

Also, it sounds more like random computer noises (beeps and stuff,
like in the old Inside Your PC screensaver from Windows 98 Plus! pack.)  Thanks
for the help!
